How to Fix (unf*ck) a Country - Six things to reboot South Africa

Roy Havemann

Sinossi

After state capture, South Africa is f*cked not in a good place. The system is down. How do we reboot?

Our is not the first country to find itself in a difficult spot. China, India, South Korea, Vietnam and many others have gone from being economic basket cases to powerhouses, lifting millions out of poverty. So how can we pick ourselves up and fix things? In this book, Roy Havemann argues that right now we need to focus on six basic 'E's: Eskom, Education, Environment, Exports, Equality, and Ethics.

Havemann lays out how we can practically bring in lessons from other countries and learn from their achievements and mistakes, for example, how China, Greece and Colombia solved load-shedding, how different South American countries are dealing with inequality and how Brazil and Kenya are upgrading their education systems.
He shows that we are slowly moving in the right direction. Our own 'Operation Vulindlela' delivery unit, which is a joint initiative of the Presidency and the Treasury, is implementing change where it's needed but more can be done to accelerate reforms to make South Africa a success. Sometimes the solutions to our problems are right here in our very own country – all that is needed is for us to recognise and harness them.

Don't Talk Negatively Behind...

Pastor Philip

The fact that you would take time to talk negatively about someone, means that you have a picture in your mind of the person you're talking about. The picture in your mind of the person you're talking negatively about, will be transmitted by that person's angel in protest to our Father in heaven.  The song "It'll Be Ok" sung by Chey at the end of the message gives the audience the opportunity to reflect on the message.

MAX YOUR LEADERSHIP! - Unlock...

Paul Lloyd Hemphill

The Battle of Gettysburg, fought from July 1 to 3, 1863, is the ideal template for recognizing and maximizing your leadership abilities. 
This pivotal event, the most written-about in American history, offers a rich narrative, emotional insights, and complex strategies that make it an unparalleled resource for understanding leadership. 
Here’s why Gettysburg stands out and why citing other historical events for our purpose would be unnecessarily redundant. Perhaps surprisingly, this isn’t a history book. Instead, it’s a powerful guide that harnesses the lessons from a significant historical event to illuminate vital life principles. This book not only enhances your leadership skills but also demonstrates how understanding human nature can turn to your advantage. 
The author offers a groundbreaking approach to history - one that moves beyond mere facts and statistics to use historical insights and challenging questions as a catalyst for your personal growth. In a paraphrase of historian John Toland, he wisely suggests, “History doesn’t repeat itself, human nature does.” 
Embrace this novel perspective and let the lessons from Gettysburg energize your life’s journey.

Sightings - a collection of poetry

Gillian Bickley

GILLIAN BICKLEY was born and educated in the UK and has lived mainly in Hong Kong since 1970. The poems in Sightings are on Hong Kong, European and personal subjects, accessible to many readers, both young and old. They consider what it is like to be a human being in this modern world, drawing inspiration mainly from the people whom the writer has encountered, especially in Hong Kong.
An academic turned full-time writer, editor and publisher, Gillian invites readers and listeners to share her enjoyment of city and country, simple and complex ideas and events, and her empathy with the largely innocent people she has come across. In her trademark transparent style, she draws on events, happenings, creatures, artefacts and objects she has seen, and on places and people she has experienced in Asia, Europe, North America and Africa, as well as on stimulating and memorable books she has read.
"She has made use of everyday life situations and turned them into life lessons. Sightings inspires us to slow down and taste the sense of the city."— Ma Kwai Hung, Hong Kong.
"The poems in Sightings are witty, poignant, full of memorable images and insights and a total delight." — Professor Ken Pickering
"Sightings conveys playfulness and ironic humour. The writer displays, 'a strong ethical sense and a constant and engaging lyricism'." —Marion Bethel, Bahamian poet
Bickley has, "a talent for turning the stuff of ordinary life into poetry. She continually surprises and delights by making fresh connections between seemingly disparate situations". — Mrs Margaret Clarke, Oxfordshire.
"Gillian Bickley walks around the world with her eyes open, relishing the phenomena she passes".— Harry Guest, Honorary University Fellow, University of Exeter, UK (from his 'Preface' to Sightings).
